Erba was named a second-team Capital One NCAA Division III Men's
Track and Field Academic All-American in balloting results
released Tuesday. Just 15 student-athletes are selected to
each of three Capital One Academic All-America Teams in a category
featuring over 440 institutions at the NCAA Division III level.

Erba continues another Rose-Hulman tradition with this
selection. The honor marks the 29th consecutive year that a
Rose-Hulman student-athlete has earned Academic All-American
honors, the sixth longest streak among all NCAA Division I, II or
III institutions and the longest streak in Division III.

In addition, Erba claimed Rose-Hulman's 15th Academic
All-American honor in the sport of track and field.
He earned Academic All-American honors due to a strong
season in the classroom and in numerous throwing events for the
Fightin' Engineers this winter and spring.

He recorded two top-five finishes at the Heartland
Collegiate Athletic Conference Outdoor Championships, helping the
Fightin' Engineers earn their seventh-straight conference title
with finishes of fourth in the hammer throw (154' 3") and fifth in
the javelin (144' 2"). Indoors, he was a member of the fourth
straight conference championship team and came home third in the
weight throw (51' 2 3/4").

The two-sport athlete also started at tight end for the football
team that won its first conference championship in 25 years last
fall. Erba hauled in 16 receptions for 209 yards and three
touchdowns for a team that earned a share of the HCAC
championship. In the classroom, the biomedical engineering
major maintains a grade point average of 3.97.
